Abstract
Heteroepitaxial growth of conductive Si-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 films on c-plane sapphire substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) was successfully performed. The effect of Si content on the structural, morphological, electrical and optical properties of Si-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 films was investigated in detail. Distinctive surface morphology evolution of films depending on Si content was observed and presented. The Si-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 films exhibited high transmittance in the ultraviolet-visible regions. The temperature-dependent PL was carried out especially to discuss the photoluminescence properties of Si-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 films. More importantly, the results suggested that the conductivity of heteroepitaxial Si-doped β-Ga 2 O 3 films by MOCVD could be realized and controlled by adjusting the Si content. The minimum resistivity of 1.79×10 −1 Ω·cm was obtained for the films grown under the SiH 4 flow rate of 0.08 sccm.
